      <font color="blue">Description</font>
    </h3>
    <p>
    The function <tt>
        <b>mtlb_delete(A)</b>
      </tt> is used by
    <tt>
        <b>mfile2sci</b>
      </tt> to replace <tt>
        <b>delete(A)</b>
      </tt> when it was not
    possible to know what was the input while porting Matlab code to Scilab. This function will
    determine the correct semantic at run time. If you want to have a
    more efficient code it is possible to replace <tt>
        <b>mtlb_delete</b>
      </tt> calls:

            </b>
        If <tt>
              <b>A</b>
            </tt> is a character string
        <tt>
              <b>mtlb_delete(A)</b>
            </tt> may be replaced by <tt>
              <b>mdelete(A)</b>
            </tt>
          </li>
          <li>
            <b>
              <font color="maroon"></font>
            </b>
        If <tt>
              <b>A</b>
            </tt> is a graphic handle
        <tt>
              <b>mtlb_delete(A)</b>
            </tt> may be replaced by <tt>
              <b>delete(A)</b>

        <b>mtlb_delete</b>
      </tt> has not to be used for hand coded functions.</p>
